Z-GPFL-CHO White lyophilized solid. PROTECT FROM LIGHT. PACKAGED UNDER INERT GAS. A tetrapeptide aldehyde that acts as a highly selective and potent proteasomal inhibitor (Ki = 1.5 µM for branched chain amino acid preferring, 2.3 µM for small neutral amino acid preferring, and 40.5 µM for chymotrypsin-like activities; IC50 = 3.1 µM for peptidyl-glutamyl peptide hydrolyzing activity). Shown to be a weak inhibitor of trypsin-like proteasomal activity. Purity: ≥95% by HPLC. Z-Gly-Pro-Phe-Leu-CHO Ref.: Oberdorf, J., et al. 2001. Biochemistry 40, 13397. Cardozo, C., et al. 1999.
